These are the simple thoughts and statements of a 29-year-old simple young man from Mobile, Alabama who now lives in Cincinnati, OH. I make no promises that the insights provided will be either thought-provoking or even interesting, but they will be mine.

While searching for information on Hoosiers who served in the Confederate military I stumbled upon your blog and felt compeled to offer a comment and an invitation. Last summer I attended the national reunion of the Sons of Confederate Veterans in Mobile necessitating my first visit to that city. I have traveled all over the world. Mobile, Alabama is the friendliest city I have every been in!!! Being born in the Hoosier state I can only hope you don’t think too harshly of Indianapolis!
Now for my invitation: Being from Alabama I must assume that you have a Confederate ancestor (probably many!). We have about 150 members of the Sons of Confederate Veterans here in Indiana and I hope you will contact me about membership!
I also would like to invite you and your wife to Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis on April 26th at 11 am when we will have a ceremony to honor the 1,616 Confederate POWs buried there. There are men from ALL of the Confederate states including 26 black Confederates and at least 1 Cherokee Confederate.
Please feel free to contact me anytime!
Thanks!

re your article about Muzak, get your facts straight. For at least 15 years, Muzak has had at least fifty channels of original artist music ( now over 80 channels) where you can select everything from hip hop to regae to top 40s to jazz and whatever it is you listen to. The selection for what is in your elevator and your building is made by the management of your building…which decides which of all of those channels it chooses to use… ((If indeed it is Muzak at all). So don’t blow up the elevator.. Tell your building management what you want to hear …
Well, I feel like my “facts” are straight, I just didn’t go into the detail you delved into. I completly agree with you, and I never blamed Muzak for theproblem in the elevator. The jag on Muzak was more of just a fun little side jaunt of infor for readers. I agree that management in the building is to blame.
I’m still gonna rip apart the elevator, however. People who would chose music this bad obviously can’t be reasoned with.
Hmmm, and I’m a Buckeye girl transplanted to Alabama. Nice to meet you.
